Great. I've got to bring a 170 to NV from AK in another week and hope the termination dust holds off for a awhile longer.

At least 8" now. The bottom of the car was dragging in the driveway (guess what I'll be doing later. ;) ) I'm sure wishing I had skis for the plane right about now.

speaking of pre-heat, i have a symtec p/n # al3236 off of my old 182

that works great if someone needs it...plugs into 110 and does a good

job when u have some time to let it heat the oil pan...faa-pmc'd

might fit others, better ck it out. i pd a lot for it, will sell it cheap...

u can pm me if u have any questions...gotta love heated hangars...!
